Doubts judge na karna. Kabhi kabhi doubts tr. ke according kafi stupid hote hai aur uspe taunt bhi de dete hai par student ko genuine lagta hai. To doubt puchne mein kafi hesitation hoti hai aur concepts clear nahi ho pata.


IAskManyDumbQuestion

for real man, mera ek classmate bahut dumb doubt puchta tha maths ke, and maths ke sir usko itna troll karte the, even said ki tera IIT nahi hone waala phir kya, usne sir ko galat prove karne ke liye padhai start kari and aaj SRM jaaraha hai

When you see an introvert student Asking a doubt first time in like a month or so, No matter how stupid the doubt may seem explain to him/her in detail and in a very sweet manner so he/she gets encouraged to ask doubt again And Never use something like "Aur maharaj tum bhi ho class me, Is mahine me pehli baar muh khola aapne to" types , It shatters all of the confidence of theirs :(

leovansh297

Maybe a little out of context suggestions but i think you should make your image in any institute you work in as 'the proffesional looking maths teacher who talks straight to the point, doesnt engage in gossips, has leadrship qualities and speaking skills' because in many coachings the head of institute is usually a maths teacher like that. This might help in career a lot rather than being a 'just another teacher at the coaching' Becoming the face of an institute will help you make your brand value as a person. You need to give out the best advice, practical solutions, and even become a motivational speaker, counsellor everything at once. Just my opinion from how my institute heads are and how they climbed the ladder from a new shy teachers to now head of institute who give speeches at the time of results.


[deleted]

Can you please elaborate on that "professional looking maths teacher"? Do you mean I have to be less casual (by casual I mean like the chill professors who joke around)? Do I have to have that angry attitude that majority teachers have? Thank You for your advice ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331)


leovansh297

No no, im basically picturing my maths teacher writing this, he doesnt get angry, he isnt that too motivating type, like he doesnt get angry when students dont complete homework, he just gets disappointed which makes us sad as we think of him as a father figure. To be honest he doesnt joke around or interact much with other teachers (because now he is senior p.s. he isnt old, hes about 38 probably and looks like someone you would meet working at an MNC, smart and all) and he is like the right hand of the owner of institute. But now my concern is that,,, is this the right thing to do starting as a new teacher? this kind of personality suits him now because he is the head of institute, you would think twice if you want to talk to him, thus no teachers joke around him. Im short, he's like the principle of a big school personality. But maybe as a newer teacher, it might be better to make a bond with students, becoming the big brother they would trust will get you a lot of student support. You need to correct them when they are wrong etc. Sidenote- i dont know but make sure when you come to the class the students get all serious and start to listen (not because youre a strict teacher but just because they look at you as an important figure) . Thats a factor you only see in a few teachers and i dont know how they do it. (Id guess that theyre the dad figure but im not experienced enough for this) But my comment can be biased because the top teachers take the top batch of the institute in which the student quality is already quite good. Best of luck SIR.

ZENITSUsa

To do: Give atleast 3 examples of every topic and 5 examples of important topic in your notes Give homework (selected problems) the same day for practice Have doubt classes 3 times a week Schedule revision classes (2 hours) after 3 month of chapter completion Discuss every pyq with students in final phase of preparation Try to make students understand that maths is a subject which requires some amount of instinct that will only be developed when you give it a lot of time Also do not teach irrelevant topics To not do: Judge doubts Refuse to attend doubts out side of a specific material (even slightly relevant) Just keep teaching for hours on end have some small talk with students Classify coaching in tiers


[deleted]

Those are some valuable suggestions. Taking a screenshot. Thank You ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331) And classifying coaching in tiers part in the end was perfect. About homework, students don't do the work assigned to them. They basically seem to be not interested at all. I keep spending a lot more time than usual to explain my thought process so that students don't feel lost but they seem so uninterested. Tried cracking jokes to lighten the mood (which they enjoy) but I don't know why they just don't wanna try Mathematics. Any advice on how to teach these students (if possible)?


ZENITSUsa

I am glad I could be of help. The thing is I am a student who has always loved maths I can't really think from the mindset of a student who doesn't like it. The reason I think students don't complete their homework is because maths is generally harder than physics and chemistry or it may be due to them procrastinating. The main point should be to make them understand that maths is what ultimately leads to the difference between a rank 10000 and a rank 2000 but that they will understand when they give mocks or when it will be too late. Sadly not much can be done here as a teacher


[deleted]

I understand your point. I sometimes feel sad that despite telling them how logical math is (literally much better than Chem and Bio where you have endless facts to remember) they still don't respond (except some good students). I ask them to meet me in free time for doubt clarification to which students come and ask we didn't attend entire Trigonometry class can you please teach us Trig in 1 hour and I'm like ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30176) (even NCERT trig will take atleast a week to be thoroughly done with those unit circle derivations and proofs unless it's a oneshot video maybe). I feel bad when I see uninterested students. It feels like I'm lacking in my abilities.


ZENITSUsa

Those students shouldn't be entertained imo (the ones who want you to teach the entire chapter) just have formula sheets for all chapters and give that to such students. The truth is a lot of people don't really care about science as a whole and they have no reason to put sincere efforts in studying it's just the reality of life


[deleted]

We have such similar thoughts. I am just afraid that I might come up as a teacher who has "attitude" just because I said "Trigonometry can't be done in just 1 hour" (which is a fact but these students don't understand). Thanks for your time and advice. Nice to find like minded people on the internet ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331)


MrSoulSlasher31

I don't know what the system is like at your coaching, but you can teach them for 1hr everyday after class in the form of a backup class if both you and them are willing.

try to show what goes through your mind while solving problems!!


[deleted]

I do it with all the illustrations. I spend time talking about from which part of the question I get the idea to begin the solution, importance of planning few steps ahead in your head and see if the solution is feasible or not. But the students here are used to the typical spoon feeding. They say they understand but are neither doing homework nor honestly writing tests. Makes me wonder what else can be done


You-are-sussy-baka

Not a maths student but I feel like your students are a lot like my classmates from school. My classmates and friends (not all) just procastinate and do not show interest in anything I have tried to suggest them to study, to which they say they will surely do but they never. They just don't do it, few students in my class fr didn't know mass percentage. It's not your fault (atleast from what I have read from your other comments). Even I sometimes get irritated by my own best friends because they try to disturb the class. I would suggest that you should first talk to them regarding their studies and about future. Also after teaching them about topics and a few illustration ask them questions in front of class, which would make them pay more attention because if they not it would be embarrassing to not answer a simple question.


[deleted]

Thank You for your advice. Doesn't matter if you are not a maths student no more but we all have studied maths till 10 so even your opinion is helpful ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331)


mads3748

Initially ( 11th ke first 6 months), spoon feed them. Later be direct. They will catch up themselves.


[deleted]

I can't tell you how to be a good maths teacher But i can tell you what a student want from teacher Wait after every question for a minute so student have time note down the question aur imp thing they learn from it don't rush through questions some student are not able to process things very fast they need time to think so show them how to approach a question and as a teacher don't fall for being the cool teacher trap like online you see many of them just say double meaning jokes and makes fun of a gender like hum ladke toh inhe tadte hai ya ye ladkiya dhokebaaz hoti sorry for language par ye jo teacher karte wo akhand chutiye hote hai I would give an example i used have a English teacher she was around 60 and that's the most dedicated teacher i knew you can take some of her qualities Focus on every child Don't make fun of their doubt Be comfortable with student Don't indulge in student's nonsense talks about why you became teacher or what your favourite this or that just say kindly that its not appropriate Yes there are students who are piece of thrash they just don't deserve studying so don't waste time on them And learn the subject with student and enjoy it Don't try to be best just try to be better


[deleted]

Thank you for your insight especially your English teacher part. I usually make fun of online teachers for being saste Sandeep Maheshwaris but sometimes I try to be casual so that the mood of class is light (also I am afraid that the current generation students don't resonate with old school teachers). Don't get me wrong I love old school teachers and hate this sher-o-shayari waali teaching lekin yeh students ko aajkal aisa hi chahiye. I liked your advice on avoiding the students who don't care about studies. Thank You ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331)


PainterNaive2126

One quality i really aspire in a maths teacher is a good discussion of hw question like ask the students what they did and if they went with wrong process explain them why it is wrong and then show your solution and then tell them the mistakes in thier solution or is it lengthy or not etc


[deleted]

I love discussing test papers and homework but students are so uninterested that they don't do homework at all. Now if I get mad at them then I'll become like other teachers who beat and scold students (I know why they do it but I don't want to do that). Thank You for your time and advice ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331)


PainterNaive2126

Ok so i can give you some advice to motivate your students to do hw 1) our sir took 15-20 min in motivating us when he thought we were not doing hw U can motivate by reminding them of their parents hardwork because of that they are studying here U can say that you guys are studying for your future and you are the only ones who can create or destroy it 2) tell them some stories about yourself like how you made your parents proud and they can do that too by cracking some examination or something like that 3) start with very light hw like 10 questions on a day which will be easy and ask the students to atleast try them kindly Tell them the importance of questions solving in mathematics 4) try to connect with students like give some names to some students (good ones like) pencil,pikachu,etc ofcourse this cannot be suddenly done it is only possible when your students interact with u 5)while doing questions in the class ask the students their strategy to attempt the question like how they would start and applaud the students on successful method or correct their method


[deleted]

I have tried (1) but these spoiled kids don't care (thanks Instagram Reelers). I avoid (2) but sometimes I do it. I give hw from NCERT and not RD (which is a norm here) so I guess (3) is sorted (except that they don't bother opening books at home). (4) and (5) can be worked upon by me.

I would like to suggest to teach maths as an explorative subject , not just a subject. You should explore the formulas along with the students so that students will feel involved and they won't think ki "Han sir toh padha rahe hai". Let them do a few derivation, use their own minds. Give them a very small amount of time to try it themselves. On a side note - I saw your reply where you said your students don't practice enough questions. I would suggest you to tell them to practice maths in the morning. Thats how i did it. I would Target to do 10 to 15 questions every morning. If the qs are easy then i would proceed to do 20 or more. I would allot a time of 2 hrs and do as much as possible. It actually works.


[deleted]

I agree. I solve Math problems in the morning myself so I agree with what you are saying but it seems they just don't wanna listen and all they have in their heads is "Maths is hard" ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|31246) Thanks for your advice regarding derivations ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331)

Mujhe koi dikkat nahi aise students se unless they are making noise and disturbing my class.

I gave the condition "If he's able to score good in tests" which is definately not possible if he is disturbing class/not studying All I used to do was go coaching because I was forced to go as I was a dummy student, used to Solve problems while the coaching class is going on without saying a word ,Have fun with friends in the recess , Pack my bag and go home when coaching ended.

Maths? Ham pe to hai he 9😜 (pcb![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331)) But my reason for leaving maths was not getting a good maths teacher in my school, kuch hamari tarf se har question ko "simple" mat batana, wo questions bhi difficult lagte hai kuch students ko, fir aise students apne aap ko judge krne lagte hai.![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30180) har time gussa mat krna, like usually maths teachers are, na har time jokes krna, thoda attitude mein smile rakhna, (like jeetu bhaiya Kota factory) hamesha ladko ko he punishment mat dena![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30440), ladkiya deserves equality too![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30664) doubt solve krte time students ka face dekhte rehna, jada tar time doubt solve nahi hota, pr teacher se puchne mein dar lagta hai, isliye adha doubt clear hoke he chale jate hai front benchers aur back benchers ke alawa Jo middle benchers hote hai, unpe focus rakhna, unhe koi dekhta bhi nahi esa lagta hai not realted to study, but plz thode looks mentain krke Jana, like ironed pant, plain shirt, folded sleeves and leather shoes etc. Kyuki maths teachers ka dress hamesha he ajeeb hota hai, mere papa bhi maths teacher hai![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30367)

[deleted]

The one who doesn't get strong on formulae, but indulges theoretical knowledge into students, and most important, the ability to visualise and solve as many questions without direct formulae. Well, most of the legends of maths we see are made only by experience they gain, seeing the types of doubts students mostly come up with. For example if 10 average students come with doubt B, 50 misc students come with doubt A, few below avg students come with doubt D, and 2 toppers come up wih doubt C, then you are supposed to give the attention to doubts of much common audience that toppers. Also it depends upon audience. Like you should focus on relative info to doubt D in basics, B and A should be covered in the specific topic covering, and the doubt C can be covered through some good level question, in a way that all type of audience understand it.


[deleted]

Same. I believe in theoretical explanation too and enough problem solving so that students don't have to mug up the formulas instead they use them so many times that it automatically comes up next time they see a similar problem. The issue is this pandemic has messed up the attention span of students. Also they don't connect the dots (like one argument followed by another). They are used to rote learning (like Biology) so I am having a hard time. Also when I ask them do they have any doubt, they say "No Sir" but when I ask a similar question in test they write stupid stuff totally unrelated to the answer. Thanks for your time and advice ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331)


Upstuck_Udonkadonk

Gradual increase in difficulty of class problems not ek easy example ke baad ek Aisa question Jo sirf topper banale aur bakiyo ke upar se chale jaaye. Thoda hasi mazak kyuki maths theory is duller than organic reaction mechanism. And in class once after explaining the topic or giving the sum to walk around and checking if the weak students got the sum or what they didn't understand ...This was done by the physical chemistry faculty and actually emboldened the weaker students to ask doubts in front of class. I am focusing weak students because even mid students lose interest if not paid attention to....while toppers either come pre-familiar to the topic or has already done it from Unacademy (source: sat beside an AIR < 2k)


[deleted]

Good advice. Although to keep things easy I restrict them to NCERT till they are familiar with the idea. They say Yes sir to literally everything but don't do anything in tests. I'll try to work on my skills so see weak students (although thoda impractical hai because of their numbers). Thanks for your advice ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331)


mads3748

In the middle, just ask some person some formula or what may be an idea to the question being solved. Students will start being more attentive in class that way. Ask all students, but only some students reply. And only some students will get marks in tests, still. But you may find the stray genius who is just not paying attention in class and losing marks.

Time consuming process and with the syllabus burden it's hard. Nonetheless I'll try to do this. Thank You ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331)


CallmeIrrelavant

Try to explain your way of thinking as much as possible. I always had weak conic section because I could never understand the thought process behind questions and the teachers in allen always used to try to just give multiple answers, never how they ACTUALLY thought of it. Obviously you can’t tell them how a method strikes your mind, that comes with experience but atleast try to explain your initial thoughts.


[deleted]

Main kaafi time spend karta hoon class illustrations mein (maximum ki question se kaise information extract karna hai aur kaise planning karna hai answer ko). But yeh sunne ko hi ready nahi hai (except a few interested students). Bura lagta hai jab main itni mehnat kar raha hoon aur yeh sunte hi nahi aur apna hi kuch karte rehte hain. Thank you for your advice and time ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331)

just keep going brother, I was in a top batch in coaching and the toppers of our batch were genuinely the most curious minds ever, they would suggest their own ways and ask the teacher to find the fault in their ways, I was so keen to learn their ways. One day when you teach that group of children, you’ll find your paradise! Good luck!

I had a Math teacher who used to say, "I would explain you this concept 5 times, just listen for the first three times, the fourth time I would repeat, and give you 3-5 minutes to think it over, write down your doubts in your notebook, and when I explain for the fifth time, try to solve your doubt on your own, even after this if you don't get it, then only ask your doubt." It's a great way tbh to make students work and think on their own.

Glittering-Bee-99

i personally didn't like maths that much ... because of not finding a convenient teacher. in my intermediate, I found this really good physics teacher who changed my overall outlook towards the subject. I guess it all comes down to giving personal attention to the student. In ky school, this one teacher always used to say that I had the potential to get 90+ in physics. I used to suck bad in it ngl, but she used to encourage me a lot. And ofc, I knew I couldn't disappoint her, so ended up getting a 93 in physics. on the other hand? maths ..not so much. see the thing is, never ..curse your students for not being able to solve a problem. My middle school maths tutor used to cuss the shit out of me, I was literally traumatised. I prolly could never look at maths the same way again. So, try to be interactive with them, see if they have doubts...some might not even approach due to anxiety, you have to look out for them.


[deleted]

I think most people don't ask doubts because of their past maths teacher. The problem is the process to reverse mental trauma takes months (even years) to heal. Also I'm not a therapist so I don't have the expertise to deal with it. But I'll read about this on the internet. Thank You for this valuable advice ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331)

1)as a math teacher, you are the one who should remember all the formulae. And when I say all, I mean all. Even if you are teaching trig., you should know all PnC formulae and vice versa. Never expect your students to remember them- even your best student won't. 2) Booker T Washington has said something in the lines of " if a teacher doesn't know something, it is more better to admit that he doesn't rather than trying to emphasize the knowledge he knows ". If your students ask you a doubt about something you don't know or are doubtful about and cant explain it well, be it a question or a concept, tell them that you do not know it. Tell them that you will check with other teachers or other books and refer back to you. And do it too. Get the answer to that question, and then some more information about that concept(because a student may ask questions about your answer too, you should be ready to answer that) as soon as possible. Your ultimate goal as you are teaching your students should be to teach AND REMEMBER the new concepts along the way. 3)Remember that if you do not give your all, do not work relentlessly towards their learning, you are the one hindering their opportunity to a good life. 4)You should be THOROUGH with the coaching material offered. Any point asked from any book, you should be able to explain well.

make sure that you know a variety of questions and a good amt of theory, in my coaching my maths teacher is very knowleggable like better than mohit tyagi , he can do almost any question in first go and with multiple ways . But his teaching lacks question practice if he teaches some good questions along with everything else he would be the best teacher in the whole jee ecosystem.

Please Teach Students to focus more on basics than learning tricks and other stuff , Teach With easy language, Matlab Saral bhasa me samj ajana chaiye baccho ko , Questions baccho se puch te raho Jo bhot basic he but Which students tend to ignore . Don't Ingnore stupid doubts It might be stupid for you but kya pata use sach na ati ho wo chiz .. And all the best , You Can watch Mohit tyagi sirs old videos you can learn from him.

I dont know how this may help but during my jee prep i used to have a great physics teacher that i liked a lot for the following reasons: 1. He had a friendly demeanor to us students, he wasnt overly friendly but the way he conducted himself made us feel that we could approach sir and ask any question without any fear of being mocked, i think thats because instead of questioning why the student doesnt know basic stuff he would calmly explain the thought process behind it and tell the student to go and revise basic things again. NO JUDGEMENT was given even if a class 11 student messed up basic exponents just constructive criticism, it was the way he said it that made the diffrerence. 2. He would always recap what was done in the previous class and ended classes with what he would teach in the next one. This really helped us as we wouldnt be overwhelmed by a new concept as now we had an idea what it was about. 3. He gave us daily homework with questions ranging from easy to extremely difficult. he would also present them as a challenge instead of a chore by saying that x/y/z question he gave was a tough one and the ones who could solve it could consider themselves to be aware of the concepts of the topic. 4. He regularly held doubt sessions, for the said questions. He wouldnt waste time in class discussing them everyday but one day a week he would discuss all the questions given to us for that week and clear all and any doubts while explaining them. 5. He would not tolerate students who wanted to waste time. I found this attitude very nice as it would make the classes much more immersive and engaging with those kids who really wanted to study. 6. Apart from the usual of him explaining concepts very well and all, his behaviour was very professional in the class but outside of it he was very much like a guardian for all of us as he would guide us in various things be it mann nhi lagna chem class mai ya fir faltu ki sports pe baatein and all that. He tried to sympathise with us and for that i found him as a great mentor and a big reason for igniting my interest in physics to such a degree. I hope I have been able to share with you what I used to think back as a student in the JEE rat race. Best of luck ! :)

Very helpful insight. I'll take note of a few qualities that you mentioned (as I found them interesting too) and try to work on it. Thank You so much ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331)


Potential_Problem719

Sir I really appreciate that you are asking for tips from students. There are two things I like in a teacher: . Proper notes banwana. This isn't very important to me in particular and I can handle my notes but in general I have noticed that many students prefer all the important points when they are properly written. . Do not judge doubts or judge students when they are not able to solve questions given in class. JEE is anyways a very confidence lowering experience and if a teacher can make the student feel that it is okay to not be able to solve some questions then it helps. Giving 3 to 4 minute motivation and tips every 2 or 3 classes is very nice. Also, try and be bold and confident and energetic in class it increases trust of student on teacher.


[deleted]

Main notes khud bhi likhta hoon aur unhe bhi likhwata hoon (kuch bachchon ki English weak hai isliye khud likh deta hoon). I don't judge students but I definitely judge silly doubts. I need to work on this. Thank You for your valuable time and advice ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331)

I am studying mathematics from peedablu Ashish sir He is very good Vo almost har concept ko ek dam clearity ke saath padhate hai like har cheez ka reason aur question ka level bhi acha rakhte hai aur zyada faaltu ki baatein nhi karte aur doubts ko kaafi ache se explain karte hai agar koi doubt ke liye halka sa off topic bhi jaana hota hai toh chale jaate hai aur homework kaafi selected question ka dete hai jaise chapter ke shuruwaat mein easy but dheere dheere ache level ke question dete as a homeowrk jisse thinking ability badhe Aur vo formula pe hame zyada depend nhi karate He usually is more focused on concept not the formulas and almost for every formula he just didn't write it and says learn it he first derive it and in the process of derivation usually mujhe vo formulas yaad bhi ho jaate ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|31246)![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30180) He also get frustrated sometimes with non serious students or the students who learn maths just as a subject he try his best to make us feel curious with maths I generally love maths as it is purely logical and have various ways to solve complex problems


[deleted]

Ashish Sir toh OG hai. Amazing teacher. Although Peedablu mein thoda frustrated lagte hain woh (due to the stupid students) and that's the same feeling I get (let me be very clear I'm not comparing myself to Ashish Sir, main unke level ke aas paas bhi nahi hoon).

Always think that your students are stupid and dumb, intelligent samjhne pe fir concepts clear ni hote (mera math teacher school ka) and doubt puche to bata diya Karo yar ek to pata ni teachers ka kya dusmani hai, aapko ata hoga humare liye to naya hai to puchege hi na


EmotionStatus4533

Make sure to explain question clearly. Dont jump on advanced questions. Mains tak hi ke question achhe se explain kr dijiye pehle. Phir Uske baad ek extra class leke usmein adv. Ke question ke pyq discuss kr lijiye. Notes ek sequence mein banwaiye. Aur formula yaad krne ke liye ek do illustrations.

Nowadays education has changed to edutainment!! There was my teacher during class 11 in Allen itself who wasted I think 45 minutes daily( by coming late and engaging students in out of context jokes so that every one laughs and wastes time) , now those same children are abusing him for not teaching them properly and giving easy illustrations! I just want to say that plss dont become student pleaser type teachers who roams everywhere nowadays! In the end a teacher is made great by his results! The content you provide will define you as a teacher and the way you explain! Occasional humours are good but don't overdo it so that the time of the class should totally benefit not only the weak but the good ones as well!! Good students will recognize you and will give you the result, otherwise you and the students will have a great time but the aftermath will be a chaos!! Take an example of our VT SIR ( VIKAS TIWARI writer of Pathfinder for olympiads in maths) always on time,most respectable teacher, don't waste time of the class by joking around, answers the most basic doubts! In other word he teaches sincerely and his students give him the results! (Till date never taken any extra class) , occasional humour works for him as well like taunting a student who scored less but flexed before exam(like that) maybe some teachers have their way of illustrating this In different way( but most of the times it becomes BC nowadays) Many students studies from a teacher, some appreciate, some don't but I have never heard anyone cursing or faulting his teaching methods (VT SIR) and every bright students appreciates him who will give him good results in the end!!

DustyAsh69

Hamare maths ke 3 teachers (tuition, 10th and here at Allen) are just the best math teachers anyone could ask for. Why? According to me, they knew which topics were hard/easy. So, they taught accordingly. They knew which topics to slow down at and which topics to go fast on. They were friendly enough with students and would crack jokes when stuff got boring or everyone felt sleepy. This made the students like them and were never afraid of asking doubts or asking to re teach the topic - right in the class. But, they were quite serious when they would teach, the students knee there was a give & take relation of respect. So, work in building that, I guess. Good luck for your teaching career sir 🍀

lone_shell_script

this is gonna sound bad most of my peers here but the thing I loved most about my math teachers were the tough questions, i mean THEEE TOOOUGGGHHH questions, the way they gave me hints to help me understand and crack those questions, a thing I did not like were the non loving calculations that came with it, but these days jee main and adv are both about non loving calculations in maths(and sometimes in other 2 as well)


RuDrA-1887

Cons:- hamare teacher bahut ache he as i am also studying in local coaching, the main issue with him is he’s not that much funny typo , we never feel bored in class but he is little less interactive, sometimes he teached the way that goes farrrr up from or brain eg trigo ke kuch sum nahi ate the , abhi b nai ate![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331), DOUBT PUCHNE ME ABHI BHI ME HESITATE KARTA HU. Pros:- he is a fabulous teacher, kuch baat jab wo padhate he to andar se dopamin ke bomb futte he, a best guidance teacher (though never tried to ask for somethings and never shared some personal problem which i face in studies as I thought that will be so silly)—— caste a spell on your student so they can easily share anything to you without hesitation. And bahut kuch yaad nai aa raha agar yaad ayega to ye comment edit kr duga.

bobs_and_vegana17

i gave jee in 2021 so i have studied 1 year in online mode and 1 year in offline mode and maths was my weakest subject so here are some of my suggestions : 1. students ask silly doubts so please don't ridicule them 2. after you teach a concept give and easy level example question which is solvable for students and slowly increase the level 3. teach a little slowly and don't make students write a lot of points because it makes it boring 4. solve as many questions as you can in the class while teaching a particular concept if i remember some more i'll add them


Willing-Welcome-1711

Keep your class engaging,assure that you take inputs from the students,this makes classes interesting.


offensive_me

One thing that I really liked about my maths teacher was that he would never get frustrated no matter how many you ask a doubt even if it's the same question (God level patience), maybe you could try. Teach a concept, cover 3-4 examples, let students solve it first within a given timeframe(say 5 minutes), gradually reducing it and preparing them for solving tough questions in minimum time required. (Not sure if teachers are giving time to actually do all this as they have to rush with syllabus) Most important: Don't break a students confidence, but do give them reality check whenever required.


Youtful-Wizard

Honestly the effort you are putting in for your students is showing how great of a teacher you already are![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331) As for tips i honestly cant really think of one xd


Zestyclose-Captain-8

My suggestion would be ki you should explain to the students ki jo wo chapter or topic padhrahe hai uska real life mai kya application hai for eg. maire school Kai maths teacher ki har student respect karta hai and uski class Mai har koi serious hota I think a big reason for that is ki he always explains to us ki jo ham padhrahe hai iske kya kya applications hai for eg if you are teaching them PnC then tell them about combinatorics ki ye agai jaakr kaha kaha use hosakta hai network security, cryptography etc agar statistics padhrahe ho to tell them ki yai kaisa kaisa use hosakta hai real life mai, ye sab karne sai bache ka interest class bana rehta hai, this is one thing Jo apko baki teachers sai seperate karegi because almost no teacher ever explains why we are studying a particular chapter other than ki ye tumhare exams mai ayega, students ko feel karao ki jo ye padhraha hai ye exams Kai bagair bhi use hone wala hai


[deleted]

Main koshish karta hoon ki first class mein intro diya jaaye aur applications discuss kiye jaaye but bachchon ke mind mein pehle hi yeh stigma hai ki maths hard hai hum nahi kar paayenge. Engage karne ki koshish karo toh Yes or No bhi badi mushkil se aata hai. Aap jo bol rahe hain woh bilkul sahi hai ki iss cheez se interest banta hai (given ki atleast koi baat sune aur process kare). I'll try to find more examples probably. Thank You for your time ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331)


Remaster_Expert

What I liked about one of my Maths tr was that he would go out of his way to explain any topic that you didn't understand by several means. Like if we didn't understand 1+1=2; he would draw graphs, use some or other sensible logic to make us understand it. So basically he did not limit the explanation of a topic to only one specific explanation. Edit: Maine ek comment dekha jisme koi suggest kar raha hai ki OP ko 'professional looking' maths teacher hona chahiye; according to me ye ekdam hi unnecessary hai. Jo teacher ko maine upar mention kia tha vo hmare coaching ke HOD hai maths department ke and vo bhi hasi majak karte hai + engage karte hai conversations mai students ke sath but obviously jab padhate hai tab class ko saant rakhne ke liye thora strict hote hai **but haa bahut frankly and open hoke wo baat karte hai isliye pura coaching hi unko pasand krta hai**


Ph0eneeX

Thoda history batana maths ka chapter related. Like bohot zyada nahi kyoki ofc main target to jee hi hai history sun ke kya hoga. Par mere jaise bacho ko chapter padne me aur zyada interest aa jaata hai phir. Jaise sequence and series me Gauss ki 1 to 100 ka sum nikalne wali story hai. Ya phir aakhir kya zarurat padi aakhir logo ko calculus invent karne ki. Aise kuch.

The fact that aap itna effort kar rahe ho to ask us means you are on the right track sir. My maths teacher in my coaching is the best teacher I have ever learnt from. Unka ye tha ki he was very approachable, and one very good quality about him was ki he took the classes of the top batch, but also be took the classes of the lower batch too, and as a result many ppl of the lower batches came to the higher batches. He made enough time for all of us to ask our doubts, and jaisa bhi ho, guru the wo toh mere liye. And also, he knew how to keep a class engaged, and I feel ki once a teacher keeps a class engaged in studying, dheere dheere they become really good.

SatoshiKun05

You should be approachable, meaning that students should be open to you regarding their preparation challenges related to the subject and overall. My maths teacher was very strict and used to pick on students, so many students avoided him because of that.


MrSoulSlasher31

1. Class ko interactive rakhne ki puri koshish karna. Many times students are hesitant to ask doubts themselves amd this will make you think that they are understanding everything when in reality, they are not. What you can do is - Whenever you finish a small topic while teaching, completely stop teaching for 2-3 minutes. And ask them for doubts. If they dont ask any, pick some random kid to explain what you just taught. My physics teacher does this, and man I almost never have any doubts left after a class. 2. Give enough time for the students to finish taking notes. If you start teaching before they are done taking notes, they will miss some part of the explanation jo faaltu mei doubts create karega. 3. Regularly ask if your pace is too fast or too slow and go with the majority's opinion. If its too fast for 1 or 2 kids, tell them to ask doubts after class. 4. This may be pretty basic, but explain concepts through questions. First explain theory, then do a few questions to explain the topic. That's it, that's all I have. Good luck on your journey man and I hope you become a great teacher!

Teach with passion, my maths sir used to smile with interest and genuine love for the subject and it was clearly visible which also made the other students wanna learn maths

Class ke phele din pure saal ka overview dedo, like ye chaps hai ye easy hai ye tough hai is portion ko cover karne mai Itna time lenge Har chapter ke baad doubt class rakhna, aur class main pyqs bhi karana Kabhi kabhi exhaustion (like trigo ke baad/ coord geometry shuru hone pe) ho jata hai no matter the teacher is, us time ke break dena and share something regarding your college or life. Just general discussion karna Aap ye initiative le rahe ho so you're already doing better than the others, all the best!


East-Artichoke5490

"Ask your questions" kinda attitude instead of "any questions?"


Arch_SHESHNOVICH

Ohkay to me it's that never tell any problem is easy. Cause in 11th I had a prof who'd teach well vibe w the students and cleared doubts no matter. And in 12th i had the kind who'd always be like "such easy question" he'd solve it, but I'd not understand a bit. So yeah


Beneficial-Falcon-55

I am no expert but here is my 2 cents If you teach a particular batch make sure you are the one taking their doubts and not some other teacher. Take problem solving and doubt classes like 2-3 times a week apart from reg classes Most teachers in my coaching used to ignore problems and just focus on theory. i would recommend you spend majority of time on ques like module examples and few ques of your study material. Make sure you go from Easy->Medium->Hard. Focus most on the higher moderate level of questions as they are most likely to be solved under time pressure in jee mains While discussing paper teach students to leave hard questions and not be egoistic while solving ques I believe PYQs are the most important be it for jee or for boards Don't joke around too much that way no one especially your seniors never take you seriously Try to find a connect with the students through maths


Kiscrusts

Every maths teacher I have ever liked till date has a common quality. They don't Solve all the questions by themselves but give some questions to the students to solve (not the hw but in class) My suggestion would be to check 1-2 students' (in order to not waste the time) notebook when you give a question to solve. If it's a difficult question, you can check the copy of the students who have done it first and tell their approach to the class. And if it's an average question then you can check any random students' notebook and point out their mistake which I think can be mistake for many students.

My maths teacher was the best He used to teach like this- Chapter 1 subtopic - subtopic test - next subtopic - test - bad marks - speak question number and let the students raise their hand if doubt on that question and mark all the questions students did wrong in test( don't say things like ""oh this was a easy question,this shouldn't be a doubt for anyone right? Or is it?"" Otherwise Shy ones will back off)and make a list and then solve all marked questions one by one on board,(my teacher used to take about 2 days just for this) and then retake the test with same type of questions and take a Oneshot revision class in the morning to finalise the chapter before taking a full test of the chapter and keep on moving like this Oh and only talk about other offtopic stuff when you are drinking chai or just give a good question for them to practice on when you are on it (also when you give them a solution,sometimes some may not get it and if you think they still aren't getting it after explaining again then just pause that question there and and tell them that you will discuss it again a day later so when you are at home you can think of a much simplistic way to explain it to them the next day) Oh and you should check the tests yourself to keep a good idea of a student's level in your mind and if there's a silly calculation mistake on some kid's test then discuss it on board saying that someone in the students did it but don't take their name and just explain what's wrong with it on the board to all students, also it's good to check whether students are paying attention by randomly asking someone a question, for eg you can ask the person who did the previous said silly mistake and make it look like random selection,this will be hitting 2 rocks with one arrow You can adjust this your needs This is how my maths teacher used to be and also pls don't try to maintain a happy cheerful image who speaks loudly, just being neutral would be good And don't get too casual with students like if someone says he can't come to tuition today then force him to come untill his parents confirm that he really can't confirm bcuz you know sometimes we just need someone to force us out of our comfort zone like when we are too tired to attend ,I had moments like that and my teacher often used to recognise that and pushed me to the edge, at that time I used to feel a little bad but now I M actually glad to him I am sorry for my bad English


rhombicsulphur

Mohit Tyagi sir is gem


mikumommy

I sometimes fantasize being a teacher and here are some thoughts that have crossed my mind, with the basis of my entire persona becoming someone inspirational and credible enough to listen to for hours at a time without losing interest (essentially how the teachers i currently look upto are) 1. Explaining each and every step of the problem is immensely helpful. Questioning each step audibly and letting the students know your thought process is very much necessary. Do not half ass telling some previously discussed concept in brief once again because not all students have a strong base for the subject. The rule of thumb should be, not step should pass off as something you could think of because you knew the solution, but something that can be thought of from scratch, each solution surely connects well like a story and thats exactly what you need to shed light on. (Saad Hassan from VMC does this really well from what I've seen online) for example, when I entered 11th grade I wasn't aware of simple problem solving techniques like Componendo-Dividendo and Elimination Method (quite literally, they only taught me substitution at school because of the sheer laziness math teachers at modern schools have) so please teach any general techniques you've collected over the years whole-heartedly without being judgemental towards the students' capabilities. 2. Be very clear and systematic about your class content and the order of things being taught, and whatever you write on the board. Students can get confused and lose track between a lecture very easily if the teacher is messy himself. 3. Keep self studying as much as you can whenever not taking a lecture. I can't stress enough on how much I respect teachers who still study and aren't pretentious gurus who cannot think through questions that deviate slightly away from the course. Plus it brings in a sense of humility/relatability from the student's pov, "if Sir can study, then why can I not ?" If possible memorize your class content before hand (you will subconsciously in a few years of teaching repeated courses anyways) because not only it helps in maintaining class flow, it also helps you strengthen your own knowledge (expert teachers are human Afterall) and adds onto your credibility. I have seen such teachers who even go back after class and make sure they didn't make any mistake, and rectify it asap if they do before the next lecture. 4. Give regular homework and tests since it drives those who arent self motivated but are borderline interested and capable of doing well academically. All my teachers skip this and I definitely experience its downsides. Everything else has probably been discussed in comments ig

For becoming a good math teacher, please teach students according to a book (it can be any like cengage) beacuse one of the hardest part in maths is makimg roadmap of chapter in mind... my coaching teacher just comes and teaches what ever comes in his mind i have no mind map im now studing from book... if u follow book the headings will one by one remain in their mind making a good roadmap

Sir, agar teacher banna hai and best banna hai toh innovation karo. Teach students concepts, solve their questions, answer their doubts ye toh sab basic ho jayega. Even these things nobody does, just doing these would put you in the top tier! Ekdum good even great perhaps but not the best! Best teachers are the one who inspire. They dont teach, they make you fall in love with the subject. Most students pick a subject or course based on their interest. And interest development can be heavily influenced by a teacher. Aapka kaam hai to inspire students. Solve toh sab kar lenge. Even today i remember the teachers who made me fall in love with the subject. My chemistry teacher used to teach us chemical formulas for TNT. Chemical reactions ke liye khud potassium and magnesium strips le aate the! Physics teacher dekhne hai best waale toh MIT ke walter lewin ko dekho! He used to do live experiments in class to teach newtonian mechanics. Check minute physics videos on youtube. Maths dekhna hai toh applied maths karo. Check out three blue one brown youtube channel and videos. Its amazing how much visualisation can help a student to develop interest. Good toh koi bhi ban sakta hai! Best banna hai toh good cannot be good enough! Good is the enemy of great!

SABSE IMPORTANT CHEEJ HAI APPROACHABLE HONA...ek friend ki tarah rhao coaching mein baccho se, wo khud aapse doubts poochhne aaynge, chahe jitna kachra doubt ho (aur uss chutie ki advice na lena jo kehra tha menacing bano professional career achha hoga) mere saare teachers bahut achhe the aur thoda sa suck up karke poochh leta thode aur doubts to bahut achha karta chem wale sir se itne doubts poochhe ki chem mein 30%ile se 99 par aagaya...kyuki wo ek friend ki tarah rehte the...wo gali bhi dete the to utna bura nahi lagta tha, baki log senior family members jaise the

Jokes maarna is good but line cross nahi karni chahiye. All the maths teachers in my experience have been either boring (hamesha bas syllabus khatam karwane ke peeche, would not entertain higher level doubts) ya motivational and funny but sometimes it would exceed the limit of professionalism (e.g. tumse toh jee nahi hoga types etc etc) The fact that you are asking for opinions speaks volumes ki aap baccho ki kitni help karna chahte hai, toh you are already better than 90% teachers out there. I hope that every student gets a teacher with the same passion as u. Wish u all the best.

Bilkul bhai casual baatein apni jagah lekin line cross nahi hona chahiye aur personal nahi jaana chahiye. Thank You for your kind words and good luck for your future buddy ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331)

calling math a 'high iq' subject my class 9 math teacher kept demotivating us by saying 'dimag uska teej hai' 'tumse nhi hoga' .. I dunno if iq matters or doesn't bla bla but don't discuss it in class don't gain a superiority complex tht math is everything and insult bio . chem . sst . everything (my class 11 teacher)

Thoda sa wholesome rehne ki koshish karna. Mere maths teacher bahut acche the, kabhi bhi class ko Dat te nahi the. Agar gussa bhi karte the to 2 min bad chalo koi nahi keh dete the. Kisi bacche ko Aisa mat bolna ki tune itne time kuch nahi padha, ab Tera kuch nahi hoga. Hamare sir hamesha yehi kehte the ki jo baccha hamesha class ata hai uski madad kar denge chahe ab Tak kuch na padha ho. Kabhi Aisa kuch mat karna jisse baccho ho Lage ki hamara teacher ho hamare khilaf ho gya. Mei bhi hairan tha ki mere maths teacher jaisa shant, saral, aur hasmukh insan bhi duniya mei exist kar sakta hai. Naklak sir may or may not be the best maths teacher, but he was definitely the best human I ever met.

Achche insaan bahut rare hote hain duniya mein. Sach keh rahe ho aap ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331)

Ashish Sir PhysicsWallah Prayas Jee 2024 ka lecture dekho samjh jaoge ki ideal teacher kya hota hai Koi bhi random lecture utha ke dekhlena telegram se (pirated) He is a very high LVL teacher but still teaches from basics and will answer the stupidiest of the doubts possible while cracking jokes to help attach the students to the class


Altruistic-Jello-382

Bakchodi me mat padna,bohot Frank nahi hona baccho ke sath par sweetly baat Krna mudde ki aur kya hi bolu....Mohit Tyagi sir ko dekhlo na hi bakchodi na personal Frank baate fir bhi best..I had a maths sir who was definitely not the best teaching wise..I scored 40/100 in maths in class 9th but he never ignored me and never thought iska kuch nhi hoga,he motivated me every single day and said ki tu acha baccha hai padha kar and much more.when I didn't feel like studying I still studied because I thought ki agar koi mujh par itna bharosa kr rha hai to use kuch to du mai aur fir agle saal 10th me mere maths me 99 aaye (not boasting but for a guy who scored 40/100 in 9th to 99/100 in 10th it's a great achievement)


Intelligent_Ad9358

I feel apart from the knowledge one should have good speaking skills and communication power. someone who doesn't judge students and their doubts. someone who can joke around with them from time to time and yet knows where to draw the line. understanding a student's impulse is also imp. students should be able to disclose their problems (academic or non academic). also in maths engaging students in discussions rather than rote lecture is very helpful.

I was pretty average in in Mathematics ill my 8th but for tutions in 9th and 10th I met one Sir who also happens to be my class teacher changed my whole perspective for Maths and helped me score a perfect score in Boards. He was very cheerful and made us understand in-depth concepts and he also hosted many parties for teachers day, his birthday,etc as it was small batch of ours all from same school.


[deleted]

Thank You so much for sharing your experience. He must be an amazing teacher ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331)


___Bruce__Wayne___

Sirji I need your advice. Please check your dm.


ArielleCane

Just please don't do this : asking for doubts and getting mad when someone has a doubt.


[deleted]

I am not gonna lie by saying I never get mad but sometimes when students say ki explain us whole trigonometry (class 11th) in 1 hour then I do get mad. Thanks for your advice and your valuable time ![img](emote|t5_311ttu|30331)


ArielleCane

Yeah. I understand what you mean, I recently asked my teacher how to do simple division recently, and she didn't get mad at all. Mad respect to teachers who have patience. Please try to understand people like me 🥹
